Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for tracking frictionless shopping eligibility relative to individual shopping receptacles. In one implementation a method comprises: obtaining image data captured using a plurality of image sensors; analyzing the image data to identify a shopper at one or more locations; detecting, based on the analysis of the image data, a first product interaction event involving a first shopping receptacle associated with the shopper and a second product interaction event involving a second shopping receptacle associated with the shopper; based on the detected first product interaction event, determining whether the first shopping receptacle is eligible for frictionless checkout; based on the detected second product interaction event, determining whether the second shopping receptacle is eligible for frictionless checkout; and causing delivery of an indicator identifying which of the first shopping receptacle or the second shopping receptacle is ineligible for frictionless checkout.

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for controlling a detail level of shopping data provided to frictionless shoppers. In one implementation, a method may comprise: receiving image data captured using one or more image sensors in a retail store; analyzing the image data to detect a shopper in the retail store; determining a likelihood that the shopper will be involved in shoplifting; controlling a detail level associated with frictionless shopping data provided to the shopper based on the determined likelihood that the shopper will be involved in shoplifting.

A system for updating virtual shopping carts of shoppers with pay-by-weight products is disclosed. The system has a processor that receive images captured by image sensors. The images depict product interactions between a store associate and shoppers. Each product interaction involves a pay by weight product. The processor analyzes the images to identify the product interactions and associates the pay by weight product involved with each product interaction with a particular shopper among the shoppers. The processor provides a notification to the store associate requesting supplemental information for associating the pay by weight product with the particular shopper. The processor receives the requested supplemental information and uses the analysis of the images and the requested supplemental information to determine the association of the pay by weight product with the particular shopper. The processor also updates a virtual shopping cart of the particular shopper with the pay by weight product.

A method for automatically updating a plurality of virtual shopping carts, includes receiving image data captured in a retail store, wherein a first shopping receptacle and a second shopping receptacle are represented in the received image data, determining that the first shopping receptacle is associated with a first virtual shopping cart and that the second shopping receptacle is associated with a second virtual shopping cart different from the first virtual shopping cart, analyzing the received image data to detect a shopper placing a first product in the first shopping receptacle and to detect the shopper placing a second product in the second shopping receptacle, automatically updating the first virtual shopping cart to include information associated with the first product, and automatically updating the second virtual shopping cart to include information associated with the second product.

Systems and methods for selling virtual items on multiple online sales platforms simultaneously are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: receive a sales request that indicates the selling user will be offering for sale a particular virtual item through at least two online sales platforms simultaneously; assign ownership of the particular virtual item temporarily to a holding account; generate sales listings of the particular virtual item for publications on the at least two online sales platforms; effectuate the publications of the sales listings; receive indications of offers to purchase the particular virtual item; determine an accepted offer that is accepted; notify the at least two online sales platforms of whether the offers have been accepted or denied; identify a buyer's account of the buying user; effectuate assignment of the ownership of the particular virtual item to the buyer's account.

A computer-implemented method may include causing a customer device to display a user portal; receiving the input customer criteria; determining that a merchant possesses a corresponding item; updating the user portal with a selectable indication of the merchant; facilitating secure information sharing by: generating an access communication unique to the customer and without any customer information; transmitting the communication to a merchant device; and providing a merchant portal with further interactive objects; receiving, a transmission based on the access communication; securely providing the customer information to the merchant device via the merchant portal; receiving merchant criteria entered by the merchant; and automatically: determining a variance between the customer criteria and the merchant criteria; and updating at least one of the merchant or user portal to include at least one of the variance or the merchant criteria.

In an approach to providing a notification based on lack of search results, one or more computer processors monitor one or more queries for content in an online marketplace. One or more computer processors determine that a result of the one or more queries is content is not found. One or more computer processors determine that a history of the result of the one or more queries for the content exceeds a threshold for content not found. One or more computer processors send a notification of the history.

My invention is a computer implemented system for conducting escrow controlled reverse-auction eCommerce transactions for a membership group on the Internet. Firstly, my invention greatly increases the safety of eCommerce transactions by the automated escrow control of the Buyer's money, whereby the Buyer's funds are held by the system and not released until the purchased item is received in ‘As Described’ conditions; Secondly, my invention determines the price of the item for sale by first displaying the item in an eShowcase at a fixed price for a chosen length of time and then lowering the price, in a reverse auction, until an accredited member decides to buy, where upon the automated escrow system takes over. The entire process of enrolling and vetting buyers and sellers (members), information exchange between the system and its members, money management via escrow and the variable item price control is a fully integrated software apparatus that runs on a stand-alone basis.

An automated computer-readable algorithm designed to generate user links, constituting an indirect match or direct match, among a multitude of users; whereby, said user links will be generated by extracting data from a multitude of published inventories.

An automated guided vehicle control system includes a commodity database, a historical shopping information acquisition module, a purchase-item prediction module, an automated guided vehicle database, an automated guided vehicle dispatch demand assessment module and an automated guided vehicle dispatch module. The historical shopping information acquisition module is utilized to retrieve the historical shopping information related to the customer, further to locate the instant predicted commodity to be purchased, and thereby to dispatch the suitable automated guided vehicle to the waiting area of the customer. Further, the historical shopping information is evaluated to provide the commodity type options for the customer to select, to locate the commodity type to be purchased, and thereby to organize the automated navigation path for the automated guided vehicle to travel along to reach the assigned commodity display area.
